I love one pot meals. I love being able to build layers and layers of flavor in one dish. And it’s usually in the form of pasta for me. I usually do meal prep for at least two days on Sundays. Being able to reach in the fridge without having to do any additional food preparation is really a help with an impatient toddler.

This dish is quite decadent. For a friend lunch I had at home, I was able to serve this with sandwiches and salad, without any leftovers. It’s a great side dish you would similarly get in a cafe or bistro that you can make yourself at home.

For dinner, this pasta dish would be wonderful with grilled chicken or a great piece of salmon.
